@jon Will they please finally connect these two streetcar lines in my lifetime?

The "#Waterfront #Streetcar" sign at #PikePlace in #Seattle -- for a service that ended 18 years(!) ago -- is even worse than the sign in #Bellevue near the library that still mentions #GroupHealth, Rosalie Wyhel Museum of Doll Art, and Open Satellite Gallery. And that's one's pretty bad.

The science of building & setting up #PanelBlocks is fairly mature by now.
Yes that means #CarDependent suburbs would need to be abandoned, they were never going to be sustainable.
(#Streetcar / #tram suburbs can work somewhat.)

This map of historic #Yakima #trolleys built on remix.com makes me want to make a similar interactive online map of the historic #streetcar lines here in #BellinghamWA. Map via: https://www.facebook.com/yakimavalleytrolleys

I don't think #Carbrained councilmembers should be called #progressive anymore. Taking money from #transit equals giving it to #cars, which funds a #police state in service to oil interests, the ones causing #climatechange.

#StreetCar / #Tram suburbs were a thing and they were far more reasonable.

Been a fan of PCC streetcars since I was a kid. Props the Market Street Railway for keeping them running along the #FMarket.

6 followers · 36 posts · Server social.ridetrans.itBy following some links, I found an old document about the expansion of the Seattle streetcar system from 2008. It would be amazing to actually have the system that they had outlined. Even their "future expansion" options they outline are beyond what's being discussed today. Maybe someday... #seattle #transit #streetcar #rail

Hiroshima City is a tram museum. A variety of trams – old and new, domestic and imported - are running on the streets. All tramways except for the Miyajima line are street running, so, trams share the streets with regular cars 😊
Old trams from 40’s and 50’s are commonly seen, while new trams have continuously been introduced 😉
I should have taken more photos 🤔
Well, I hope I have a chance to visit Hiroshima again 😊

A variety of trams (old and new) that are built in different cities are running on the streets. They also bring trams that had been used in abolished railways. Not many, but some of them are brought from Europe. So, Hiroshima City is like a tram museum. Hiroshima Electric Railway has been doing very well except during the COVID lockdown 😉

Hiroshima Electric Railway, Tram 3702
A tram at Miyajima Station (terminal). This one (3702) was among the newest models when I lived in Hiroshima as a high school student. But now, this is one of the oldest models, and the newest tram looks like a future car. But I am glad that I saw this tram during our visit.

I went to the #Rustbelt and all I wrote was this lousy blog:
https://jedsetter.com/travelling-by-transit-across-the-rustbelt-part-1-motor-city/
In Part 1 of this x part series I fly from #Calgary to #Detroit, ride the airport #bus and the #qline #streetcar and marvel at the beautiful fin-de-siecle #architecture and the early 21st century #gentrification.

The nearest transit to this massive tourist area is several blocks away, up a steep hill.
